Lyrics

I woke up it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I heard...
Was falling rain, on my windowpane – made me feel mundane, such is today
Hey, it’s my birthday and I’m up on the midway – makes me wanna fly away, but I just can’t
Forging deeper into situation complication – question mark (2x)

CHORUS
And the blue flame flickers, reminiscent of your life
Clouds rush in like the years gone by
Everything is different, yet in fact it’s all the same
They say it’s just a number when you reach that certain age
You got, one life up ahead – you got, one life far behind
You’ll get more wrinkles than a T-shirt on the floor
Better to be leather, than to never have been worn

So I gaze out my windowpane, still watching the falling rain
Yeah I think about today and it makes me smile
It’s a happy, happy birthday – feeling lucky, alive and grey
I’m up on the midway... at least for today
Forging deeper into situation complication – question mark (2x)

CHORUS

Flying solo in the single lane, alone don’t mean lonely
Forging deeper into situation complication – question mark (2x)

CHORUS
